Blathering Personified

After complaining to my personal physician long enough about 'phantom pain' in my wrists and left fourth and fifth fingers, I was given Gabapentin, (AKA Neurotin) a 'nerve' drug used by those with fibromyalgia and other such afflictions like my situation with chronic neuropathic pain. Mine was... Sign in to see full entry.

Writing For Selfish Reasons

I subscribe to a lot of online writing sites and I see tons of articles about 'making money writing for this XYZ website!' Yeah... about that. While this article isn't that bad, it does have some salient points. Grammar is highly important in getting a job and other things. I once got a $3500... Sign in to see full entry.

Let The Writing Begin... But First, a Screed

It's quiet here, something very unusual, and I'm going to sit down to finish "Just Dreaming," but something else came to mind that bugs me. Over the past five months or so, I've run various stories through Amazon's Marketing Service. I sold about 350 copies of "The Darkness," a story that came to... Sign in to see full entry.

A New Goal

Crazy stuff lately. A weekend ago, I sincerely sat down to finish "Just Dreaming" when I spied another story I have been working on for literally four years now. I made the 'mistake' of opening that folder and began reading some of the sections of the book. Darn it. Long story short, I found a... Sign in to see full entry.

Well... Maybe!

Well... I saw my surgeon today and he said he was extremely happy with my recovery. He assured me that the various issues I was enduring were to be expected and they will pass. I am very happy right now. Allegedly, I will have some 'alone' time this weekend and I am going to make an attempt to... Sign in to see full entry.

Caution-Long Periods of Fog Ahead!

I haven't abandoned this place... just still muddling through some mental and emotional fog. During my surgery, I had six doctors and I've seen four of them in the last week, so I've been traveling a lot. All of them are impressed with my recovery. One told me it might be another month or so before... Sign in to see full entry.

Last Letter?

If you were in a situation with about one hundred others and you knew for certain that you would die in about ten hours and there was no escaping that fact and you were allowed to write a letter to your family, what would you say? I found a reference to a book entitled, "Last Letters From... Sign in to see full entry.

The Mist

I've been trying to work on finishing up, "Just Dreaming," but I'm finding the fog in my brain is still too heavy to write. I had an appointment with the doctor that did my surgery today. He was amazed at my physical progress, saying that I was a week or more ahead of his expectations for me. I... Sign in to see full entry.

Are We Getting Too Robotic?

As someone who watches "The Drudge Report" faithfully, I am more than a little disturbed by the advancement in the area of robotics. This story talks about a robot pet dog Now I ask you, with hundreds of thousands of pet REAL animals available, why do we need robotic dogs? I mean robotic dogs that... Sign in to see full entry.

Keep Pushing... Keep Pushing... Keep Pushing

My mind is driving me to write. I have written so very little since mid January and it is bugging my brain. I want to finish "Just Dreaming," but the story burning in me is about me, the clock, and the white room. I think I can get something up this weekend. Thanks for reading! V Keep Pushing REO...
